Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin injured his right hand after hitting a member of the team's equipment staff during an argument, multiple sources told ESPN's Michael Eaves.

According to the sources, Griffin and Matias Testi, the team's assistant equipment manager, got into an argument in a restaurant during the team's trip to Toronto. Griffin hit Testi, who then left the restaurant and went outside. Griffin followed him outside and hit him again.

Griffin suffered a suspected fracture in his hand in the incident, sources told ESPN's Marc Stein and Ramona Shelburne early Tuesday morning. Sources said the injury is expected to keep Griffin out "a matter of weeks, as opposed to days."

Testi had visible injuries to his face, sources told Eaves. Both Griffin and Testi were sent home after the incident.

Wow, Blake just wow.

You know, Amar'e's incident a few years back was pretty silly, but at least that was an inanimate object and frustration after a loss. Pretty embarrassing incident here.

Shame. So Griffin punched a guy half his size and then followed him to continue on punching him.
